GRAND RAPIDS, MI - The McDonald's restaurant at 417 Michigan St. NE west of College Avenue has city approval to add a second drive-through lane that the company said should reduce vehicle backups and help process food orders more quickly.

An updated exterior facade also is planned, with the existing mansard roof removed and a new entry vestibule added.

McDonald's also plans a second drive-through lane and facade upgrades at 1246 Leonard St. NE, east of Fuller Avenue. That restaurant also will add new signs, lighting, sidewalk and 386 square-feet for more seating and kitchen space.
